For workers

Work on A2Z through a partner, or independently if you worked with us before.

There are two ways in. Through a partner: a company in your region verifies you once, signs you up, gives you a manager you can message and pays you in your local method, and you get work that is assigned to partners only. Independent: if you worked with A2Z on Mechanical Turk or on MicroWorkers before, you can register yourself, and once we have confirmed that and verified your identity you work with A2Z directly.

What you can expect

  • The rate is shown before you accept a task.
  • Rejections come with a reason and can be appealed.
  • Through a partner, payouts run on a fixed schedule through your partner, in your local method. Independent workers will be paid by gift card or prepaid card.
  • Sample tasks are free practice and are not paid.
  • Live tasks open once you are verified: by your partner, or by our identity check if you are independent.
How it works

Four steps, one of them is practice.

1

Create your account

Choose a partner in your region, or register as an independent worker with your old Worker ID or username. Two minutes, no fees.

2

Get verified

A partner checks your identity, signs your agreement and assigns a manager. An independent worker is confirmed against our records of people who worked with us and passes an online identity check.

3

Practice

Twelve sample tasks are open from day one. Scores are instant so you learn the formats before live work.

4

Work and get paid

Accept live tasks at the rate shown. A partner pays its workers on its schedule and handles any disputes with them directly. Independent workers will be paid by gift card or prepaid card.

Coming from Mechanical Turk

Mechanical Turk closes on September 30, 2026.

Amazon has announced that HITs end on that date. Worker histories do not transfer between platforms, but ours do count. If you worked with A2Z on Mechanical Turk or on MicroWorkers, you can register as an independent worker: enter your Worker ID or username when you sign up and we check it against our records. Everyone else joins through a partner, who prioritise experienced workers when they set up program teams.

Approvals and bonuses on Mechanical Turk continue until October 30, 2026, according to Amazon's notice. Make sure you collect what you are owed there.

Sample tasks

Worker questions

Do I pay anything to join?

No. Registration and sample tasks are free. Your partner's agreement sets out their payout schedule and any local processing costs before you sign.

Who pays me?

If you work through a partner, your partner company pays you and A2Z never holds your money, so choose a partner whose payout methods work in your country. Independent workers will be paid by A2Z through a payout provider, as gift cards or prepaid cards.

Who can register as an independent worker?

People who worked with A2Z on Mechanical Turk or on MicroWorkers before. We check your Worker ID or username against our records and verify your identity before live work. Everyone else joins through a partner.

Am I an employee of A2Z?

No. Independent workers are independent contractors: you decide whether, when and how much to work, and you can work for others too. Workers who use a partner work under the partner's agreement. A2Z is a marketplace and is not your employer.

What if I disagree with a rejection?

Every rejection carries a reason. You can appeal to your partner manager, who can escalate to the enterprise that posted the task. Independent workers can appeal to the A2Z team.

Can I change partners?

Yes, once per program cycle. Ask your current manager and we move your account.

Which countries are supported?

Any country where a partner operates. The list grows as partners join. If none covers your region yet, register anyway and you will be notified when one does.
